Pre-Columbian figure of a seated male, made from a purple stone that may be amethyst. The figure is squatting, with his knees drawn up to his chest, and his arms grabbing his knees. The fingers and toes are outlined with incised lines. The figure appears to have a bald head. The eyes have been created through small slits in the stone, and his nose is fairly large with defined nostrils. His squared mouth has outwardly pronounced lips.

A flask-like snuff bottle (part a) that is semi-translucent purple decorated with a bat, a butterfly, and a lion. There is a stopper (part b) that is made of a pink coral carved with an animal reaching out with its paws. The wood stand (part c) has the shape of an oval, and has four legs.

Glass was originally cataloged separately by material type, although with duplicate numbers by AINW. Catalog entries were combined by the Burke Museum as specimens have one catalog number and are stored together in one bag. Grant J. Snitker 04/20/2011
